AlphaRoute demonstrated exceptional dedication and understanding of our goals. Their work reduced ride times and uncovered new efficiencies, resulting in a more streamlined and cost-effective service.
Optimization Services
Our optimization team applies MIT-developed algorithms to your routes, bell times, and boundaries, so you can cut costs without switching software.
Expert Optimization, Backed by MIT Research
Whether you run AlphaRoute software or another routing system, our optimization team works alongside your staff to find savings hiding in your current operation. Optimization engagements typically reduce fleet sizes by 10% or more.
- Proven results: Leander ISD saved over $1.9 million in a single school year.
- No software switch: Keep the tools your team already knows.
- Data-driven decisions: Clear scenarios and numbers to bring to your board and community.
Routing-as-a-Service
Cut fleet size by up to 30%
Get the power of MIT-based routing algorithms without changing systems. We optimize your routes and hand them back ready to run, so your team keeps the software it already knows.
Bell Time Optimization
Data-driven decisions your community can follow
Simulate multiple bell-time scenarios side by side, so your board decisions are based on data and you have clear numbers to share with families and staff.
What-If Scenario Modeling
Fast answers, even in chaotic times
See how policy changes affect routing before you commit to them, whether it's walk zones, eligibility rules, or a driver shortage. Quickly simulate the options and find the most efficient routing solution.
Student Assignment Optimization
Boundaries and choice policies that meet district goals
Redraw attendance boundaries and adjust school choice policies to meet district goals for capacity, cost, and ride times.
Results That Go Beyond the Numbers
Shorter rides, smarter routes, and teams asking better questions.
For the first time, we collectively examined not just what we do, but why we do it. This process prompted our team to take a hard and honest look at why we operate routes the way we do… answering questions that had never been asked before.
What Could Optimization Do for Your District?
Optimization engagements typically reduce fleet sizes by 10% or more, but savings are only part of the story. Shorter rides, more reliable pickups, and better use of your drivers are on the table too. What would you like to improve?
